This guide will help you retrieve the qc-usb drivers for your Quickcam.

Downloading and installing

This module is in AUR. As I write, the dependency linux-headers has been left out of the PKGBUILD, so you'll need to install it manually.

Finding the module

The module is called c-qcam. Load it with modprobe or add it to MODULES in /etc/rc.conf. Udev should autoload it on reboot, though.
